Yeah?  These same women routinely play, and lose to, teams of high school boys.[/quote]

What? They won the World Cup. I doubt they lose to high school kids.[/quote]

No, they do. They've scrimmaged U16-ish boys teams in the past. Very good ones, though -- if they showed up at a random high school and asked to play the varsity boys, they'd probably win. But if they played an ODP selection, a top club or a title-contending high school team, they'd lose.[/quote]

Right.  I made the previous comment.  It's nothing against the team, which I think is generally decent people (with a few exceptions).  Celebrate their win, but for some people with a feminist bent, women's soccer is an excuse to shout grrrlpower and bash men.  Shut up already and celebrate the team like any American team.  They didn't beat men, they beat five foot Japanese women.[/quote]

And, in all fairness, our ODP U-16 boy teams would get crushed by U-10 boys teams from Ajax, Barcelona, bayern, etc.

It's all relative, dude.[/quote]
